start TV-set via hauppauge remote blaster?

[Koenie]

Not sure whether I dont know how to set it up or it might be a feature request:

The only purpose I use the remote of my TV-set for is to start and stop it. Can a button on the remote (hauppauge in my case, the green power button or home button) be programmed to start and stop the TV-set via the remote blaster?

The remote blaster is dependant on hauppauge software and device lists. I think they only include set top boxes and not TV sets. For me, the TV and set top box are too far apart for the blaster to work both.

I feared that. Nevertheless if anyone has an idea...

Mhhm..., another question: Is your Beanbag able to "learn" the signals from your TV-Remote?

If no, the i don't think there's a way for this with this remote. If yes, then it were PROBABLY possible.

That's the advantage of the MS MCE Remote V2: She can learn itself some commands (Power On/Off, Volume Up/Down). With the Power Button i control the LCD and with the Volume Buttons the Subwoofer of the 5.1 System.

After 3 weeks of usage the WinTV Remote (the new one, which looks like the MCE Remote), i sold her at ebay, because she's not easy to handle and use.
